i hate what didn't kill me

[fabricates]

WHO: Vriska Serket and Terezi Pyrope
WHERE: The park I think
WHEN: March 8th sometime
WARNINGS: Vriska and Terezi together, they are their own warning.
SUMMARY: Terezi called on Vriska. Feelings ensue.
FORMAT: Action

[Vriska wastes a little time before she actually decides to head off after getting that text from Terezi. She can't seem too eager to want to finish their showdown, since that's obviously what this has to be about. Let Terezi think she isn't worth the time. Also there's the fact that she still kind of doesn't want to see her, but well. Some sacrifices have to be made in order to win.

So she heads to the appointed place, looking around.]

Hey Pyrope! Hiding already? This really doesn't bode well for you.

[terezi appeared suddenly from behind a tree, looking rather preoccupied. she had neither her pyralspite plush nor her cane sword. though she did have her regular cane.]

Finally!! Come over here.

[fabricates]

[Squinting. No... weapons? Well, she didn't really trust that. They could be conveniently hiding behind that tree she was next to. She approaches in what most would consider a casual fashion, but there's caution tied all up in it. Eyes flicking around to make sure she's not caught off guard.]

You sure are bossy today. Are you that eager to finish things?

[somethinglawful]

[terezi would definitely be rolling her eyes right now if she were capable! instead she just shrugs impatiently.]

Sure, you could say that.

[and actually behind that tree is just a really quickly put together makeshift pile of leaves and sticks and rocks......it's not her most impressive work okay she just didn't think it would be wise to invite vriska to her respiteblock.]

Now come here and sit down!

[do not think you will escape this pile, vriska. terezi is dead serious!!]

[fabricates]

[Oh my god is that a pile. She stops, stares at it for a minute or two, before she glares at Terezi.]

You called me here for a feelings jam? What the hell is wrong with you?

[somethinglawful]

Nothing is wrong with me!! We just--I just need to talk about some stuff, so we're going to do it properly and not on a memo like a couple of tools, okay?

[wow she's looking kind of plaintive here. like she really needs to do this.]

[fabricates]

[Ugh, curiousity killed the purrbeast. Or the spider in this case.]

Talk about what? Because I thought we were past that point. [She stares at the pile because really, she does not... want to get anywhere near that thing. So she's going to stand there like a stubborn asshole.]

[somethinglawful]

About a lot of things!

[if vriska's just going to stand there then terezi is going to march over and try to physically pull her to the thing. tugging impatiently on her arm, if vriska will let her.]

Come on!

[fabricates]

It's too late for talking!

[Goddamn it. She really wants to pull away, like. Almost every fiber of her being is telling her to abscond the hell out of here, but her pride won't let her. And there's also the fact that maybe, just maybe she's really curious about what Terezi has to say. As soon as she sits down, she makes a face.]

This is the shittiest pile I've ever seen.

[somethinglawful]

It's the best I could do on short notice!!

[she huffs, but then she's back to being painfully earnest. she is going to hate herself tomorrow.]

Look, I just... [she's still got one hand on vriska's arm.] I guess I just wanted to say, I'm sorry.

[every indication points to the fact that she is being totally honest here!!]

[fabricates]

[Whoa, whoa. What? She was trying to pull her arm away when the apology comes out and she looks up to stare at her like she's suddenly grown a second head. Is she trolling her? Terezi is apologizing what is happening. This can't be legit.]

And just what atrocity against me are you apologizing for? Because your track record sucks pretty hard and there's a million things you could be apologizing for.

[somethinglawful]

[terezi actually winces at that question. trust vriska to really ignore everything everybody was telling her...]

For killing you.

[but no she can't just let that hang there. she keeps talking before vriska can interrupt her, fast and anxious. like she's been waiting for ages to get this out.]

I mean, I had to, and I'm not sorry that I preserved the alpha timeline, but I'm sorry that it was you I had to do it to because I didn't want to kill you, I don't hate you, I just want you to--to be better, okay??

[fabricates]

[Hey only one person told her about that and it was Gamzee ok. Who would believe him.

She's just still... staring at Terezi. Is this the twilight zone provided trolls actually have one? She is suddenly really uncomfortable with this whole thing.]

What the hell? I'm not dead. This has to be a joke, you're apologizing for shit you haven't even done. And what's this about yyou wanting me to be better?? By whose standards? Yours?

[somethinglawful]

I'm not joking!!

[oh wow, she actually looks kind of upset??]

By--okay, yes by my standards. Is that so wrong?

[fabricates]

I'm not dead! You're full of shit if you think I am.

[Her eyes narrow. There's absolutely no way Terezi killed her.]

Yeah, it is. You aren't the judge and jury. You don't get to decide what's right and wrong and then judge everyone by your stupid standards.

[somethinglawful]

Oh my god, Vriska, why would I lie about something like that??

[fabricates]

To get under my skin?? Why wouldn't you? But I'm not buying it. There's no way you would have ever had the kind of guts to kill me.

[somethinglawful]

I stabbed you in the back.

[OH MY GOD WHY IS SHE SAYING THIS.]

[fabricates]

[Oh my god she feels like she's going to vomit.]

God Tiers don't die from cheap shots like that. And you didn't kill me anyway, I'm still alive.

[somethinglawful]

[she's not the only one]

You did, I did, and that's probably just the stupid transportalizer fucking with us.

[fabricates]

I'm not going to die! Definitely not like that. Quit trying to fuck with me, Terezi, it isn't going to work.

[somethinglawful]

I'm not fucking with you!

[now she really does sound upset.]

Maybe if you would actually listen you would understand that!!!

[fabricates]

I'm not going to listen to your stupid lies! I'm not dead, I'm not going to die!

[And Vriska's getting increasingly more worked up about this because really, Terezi probably wouldn't lie about this and she seems really legit right now but no. She refuses to accept a death by backstabbing. Besides, Terezi is obviously out to get her. Right? yeah.]

[somethinglawful]

You already did!

[fabricates]

No, I didn't!!

[Shoving Terezi angrily to emphasize her point.]

[somethinglawful]

Yes you did!!!

[omg shoving her back in frustration although all in all this has gone better than she should have expected]

[fabricates]

Just stop it! I don't believe you and I'm not going to believe you because all you're spewing is a whole lot of bullshit!

[SHOVING AGAIN GOD.]

[somethinglawful]

Blargh!!!!

[WOW THIS IS JUST TURNING INTO A RIGHT PROPER SHOVE FEST at this rate they'll be wrestling soon]

[fabricates]

Ugh!!!

[Yep that is precisely where this is headed. They're so Mature.]

[somethinglawful]

Why are you so stupid????

[yep terezi is totally throwing herself at vriska now because shoving is just not enough? this feelings jam sure went well]

[fabricates]

[OW rocks in her back, so she's going to try to roll them over.]

You're stupid!!

[somethinglawful]

[rolling is achieved and as terezi finds herself on the bottom of the pile she shoves one of her hands at vriska's face.]

You're stupider!!!

[fabricates]

You're the stupidest!!!

[Shoving both of her hands in Terezi's face.]
